Twenty-Second Flame-[Action]

[Even though he didn't really want to leave the house, Taichi knew he had to go find Yamato so after an entire morning and afternoon racing around the village looking for his best friend, Taichi ended up back at Chosen house. Disappointed in himself and fairly distraught that they really did take Yamato, Taichi doesn't even bother going inside and he just flops down into his hammock, curling up in it and half-closing his eyes just in case Yamato comes back. Anybody doing patrols or checking on the kids is free to find him still in that position even after several hours]

... I know. I came by as soon as I heard, but Hikari said that you had run out.

They really took him. I couldn't find him anywhere. I looked. [brb irrationally freaking out]

... You didn't go outside the village, did you?

...[kind of just avoids looking at her]

Oh Taichi.

I suppose I can't fault you for doing that. But it's ... I need you stay where it's safe.

What about Yamato? What if he's not somewhere where it's safe?

... The Malnosso have him. We can't get to him from here. Running around looking for him isn't going to bring him to safety sooner.

Why would they take him?

... I don't know. But we have to be here for him when he gets back.

I want him back now.

I know. But that isn't an option.

What am I supposed to do?

You have to be here for Hikari, and Takeru, don't you?

...yes.

Yamato would never forgive you if you ran off and got yourself hurt while looking for him, either. Especially after what just happened.

What if he thinks I forgot about him though and that I didn't look...?

That's just foolish.

He might though...! [In other words, hi I'm eleven and still having nightmares]

He won't. And if he does, then he'll need a talking to. Honestly, Tai.

[Kind of goes quiet and hangs out in his hammock then]

It's okay to be scared, Taichi. But you know what I've said already about letting it win.

I know...but still. What do I...[brb poutyfish]

You probably haven't eaten yet, for starters.

...well no but...

I believe one of the residents has been putting together lunches for the workers. I'm sure she wouldn't mind sparing a few for you three, under the circumstances.
